Chapter 129: Pretending

In mid-February, Mu Zhiling heard that Princess Shen and the little county lord Ruoxi had moved to a house in the suburbs.

Later, Princess Shen also asked someone to write a letter to come, saying that Zheng Ruoxi's condition had stabilized.

The letter also asked about Xiao Yuning's previously mentioned method of healing.

Xiao Yuning immediately wrote some healing methods and sent someone to send them. But Princess Shen wrote back that she couldn't implement this method at all.

But Xiao Yuning couldn't get out of it because of all the trivial facts in the Mu family's shop now, so she asked Mu Zhiling to go on her behalf.

Mu Zhiling listened to what her mother said before, checked the so-called treatment method, and prepared to go to the house where Princess Shen was on the outskirts of the city.

This time she went with the shells.

A child like Ruoxi is afraid that he will like shells.

Just as he was about to go out, he heard Mu Xi's glutinous voice coming: "Fifth sister, fifth sister." ”

The snow had already melted in February, but it had just rained and the ground was slippery. In addition, this is spring, which is the season for moss to grow, so Mu Zhiling also ran out nervously.

I saw Mu Xi holding a piece of rice paper in his hand, running quickly, raising an innocent and satisfied smile, and said, "Fifth sister, I can write, you see this is written by Xi'er." ”

Mu Zhiling squatted down and was about to take the rice paper from Mu Xi's hand, when she snatched the rice paper with a pair of big hands.

"Tut-tut, it's so ugly."

When Mu Xi heard this, he cried out, smashed his mouth, and said, "You are a bad person, a bad person!" ”

When Mu Zhiling looked up and saw the person coming, her body shook, and she couldn't care about Mu Xi, who was crying, so she hurriedly got up and said in surprise: "Grandpa!" What are you doing here? ”

It came so quietly.

Prince Xin stroked his beard and said with a smile: "What's the matter, the little girl doesn't allow grandpa to come?" ”

Mu Zhiling hurriedly denied it, but at this time Mu Xi cried even more, "Wow...... Bad guys, bad guys! ”

Prince Xin squatted down and hugged Mu Xi in his arms, Mu Xi kept struggling in his arms, crying more and more, and finally opened his small mouth and bit him hard with his sharp little tiger teeth.

"Snort...... You little doll, you are already ugly, and others say that you are not happy? I'm an old man who doesn't remember villains, and if you bite someone, you have to beat your ass and tear your little mouth apart. ”

Prince Xin put Mu Xi on the ground, pointed to his nose, and said sternly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his fingers stretched out, Mu Xi opened his mouth wide and wanted to bite him again.

Frightened, Prince Xin shrank suddenly, he took a step back, still pointing at Mu Xi, and said, "You puppy!" Believe it or not, I'm going to smash your ass! ”

Mu Zhiling shook her head helplessly, was the grandfather she remembered really like this?

It seems that the past life was really ......

I remember that it was after Prince Xin came back from traveling in the mountains and rivers, and at that time she was already Song Yingzhao's unmarried wife, so Prince Xin loved her very much. Whatever she did, he took it for granted.

Mu Xi looked at Prince Xin with wide eyes, and cried again, this time it was even more powerful than the last time, and the voice almost attracted the entire Yingguo Mansion. Prince Xin hurriedly covered his mouth and coaxed: "Oh, don't cry......"

He raised his head and asked Mu Zhiling, "Ling girl, what is the name of this kid?" ”

"Mu Xi......" Mu Zhiling looked at the old man and the young man squatting on the ground with a smile, and Mu Xi took advantage of Prince Xin's relaxation to take another heavy bite on his hand.

"Why are you biting me again? Respect the old and love the young, do you understand, I am two old and one young, you want to respect the old, I want to love the young. This king just said that your handwriting is ugly, that is to praise you, praise you for being handsome! This appearance is inversely proportional to talent......"

But at this moment, Mu Zhishuang walked in from outside the hospital angrily, and said angrily: "Mu Zhiling, I just said that you didn't have a good heart!" You have to bully a child, you are still not human! ”

Mu Zhiling glanced at Mu Zhishuang and ignored it.

Brother Zixi was crying at this time, and it was in her yard, but this was clearly Prince Xin's crying.

"I must sue my grandmother about this, you have to bully even a child under the age of five, you really have no skin and no face." Mu Zhishuang walked forward quickly, and was about to squat down, but Prince Xin stood up suddenly, stared at Mu Zhishuang coldly, and said, "Girl, you eat garlic in the morning." ”

Mu Zhishuang covered her lips, she ate lightly in the morning, so she drank corn porridge, how could she eat garlic.

"You don't want to spew blood, who are you who dare to appear in my Yingguo Mansion, come and blast her out for me."

"You dare!" Mu Zhiling hurriedly stopped her and said sharply: "You know he is ......"

Prince Xin waved his hand and motioned to Mu Zhiling not to talk about Hu. He looked at Mu Zhishuang for a long time, and said, "I didn't eat garlic and it stinks so much, girl, your body is poisonous." ”

Mu Zhishuang's body trembled obviously, took a step back and said, "You are talking nonsense, come on, blast out this nonsense bad old man for me." ”

Prince Xin didn't pay attention, this is Mu Zhiling's courtyard again, the third lady didn't speak, no one listened to Mu Zhishuang at all, Mu Zhishuang was so angry that she stomped her feet.

Prince Xin motioned for Mu Zhiling to go to the main hall with him, walked a few steps and turned around, and said to Mu Xi: "Instead of crying here, the little guy might as well write a few beautiful words to prove to me." ”

Mu Zhishuang stared at the figures of the two leaving, panting.

Is this really unreasonable, does this Mu Zhiling think that the Guogong Mansion can be entered by anyone?

She must sue her grandmother, just take this opportunity to rectify her and see what kind of face she has in the future.

The corners of Mu Zhishuang's mouth were hooked, and she laughed contemptuously.

Mu Xi's round eyes widened in a daze, and there were tears in his eyes.

"What are you doing here, why don't you go back with me!" Mu Zhishuang roared.

Mu Xi finally stopped crying, and was yelled at by Mu Zhishuang, and cried again.

Mu Zhishuang dragged Mu Xi out regardless of it.

Mu Zhiling walked to the main hall and saw a faint smile on the corner of Prince Xin's mouth, and couldn't help but feel a slight chill down her spine.

Prince Xin immediately sat down and said, "Old man, I've only been out for a few years, little girl, you have grown so tall, this water spirit is the same as Ning girl." Don't look at me and say that she is ugly, in fact, your mother used to be one of the best beauties in Kyoto, plus she was the righteous daughter of my Prince Xin, so the number of people in Kyoto who wanted to marry her was too many to count. Anyway, I didn't count them on my fingers......"

The corners of Mu Zhiling's mouth twitched, and she couldn't count it without counting it......

Then he pulled Mu Zhiling to sit down and said, "But your mother has a bad eye, and she married your father's stunned young man, and when my old man found out, he was cooked with raw rice." Little girl, you can't be as willful as your mother......"

The door suddenly opened, Xiao Yuning walked in the door with a straight face, Xiao Yuning blushed.

This old man who is disrespectful to the old dares to say that she is not in front of his daughter, and that she is not the master.

When Prince Xin saw Xiao Yuning coming, he immediately sat on his seat and raised his eyebrows invisibly.

"Why don't you say a word when you come, quietly, just like a ghost." Xiao Yuning wasn't really angry, but she heard that Prince Xin went directly to Begonia Garden, and she must have wanted to ......

That's when she hurried over.

Prince Xin's tone was not necessarily good, the smile on his face was completely gone, obviously he was angry with Xiao Yuning, and in the end he couldn't hold it back, he sullenly and said: "Ning girl, why are you so stubborn, let the little girl be my granddaughter-in-law, it is difficult to make you lose face." The so-called fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders......"

Xiao Yuning glared at him, and said in a tough tone: "I can't say no, it's not okay, there are so many women in Kyoto, and Brother Zhao hasn't said that Sister Ling has to be, why are you just a tendon...... It's not serious. ”

The last few words were a few points lower.

Prince Xin said sternly with a rare expression: "Ning girl, let Ling girl be in charge of this matter, if she is willing, this matter will be decided." If she is unwilling, this king will not force her. ”

He rarely claims to be the king in front of Xiao Yuning, and whenever he says this, he is extremely serious.

The corners of Xiao Yuning's mouth hooked, and Ling'er was asked to choose......

Are he sure?

Prince Xin turned around, looked at Mu Zhiling, and said, "Ling girl, tell your mother, what you think." ”

He had heard Brother Zhao say that Ling girl liked him, if he hadn't learned the news, how could he suddenly come.

Mu Zhiling lowered her head, her voice was as thin as a mosquito fly, and said: "Ling'er only treats Xiao Wang Ye as if he is his own brother, and has never had other thoughts. ”

After hearing this, Prince Xin was stunned. In the end, I had to stroke my white beard and said, "It's okay, the twisted melon is not sweet." ”

And after Mu Zhishuang left from Begonia Garden, she ran to Zhilanzhai and panted to add fuel to the scene she saw in Begonia Garden, and after Mrs. Mu heard it, before she could speak, there was a burst of laughter outside the door.

The man walked in, and when Mrs. Mu saw it, she twisted the Buddhist beads in her hand, reluctantly got up and saluted, and said, "I've seen Prince Xin." ”

Mu Zhishuang was stunned in the distance, this person is Prince Xin!

What did she just say......

Just when Mu Zhishuang was frightened, Prince Xin came closer, this time he changed his smile just now, glanced at Mu Zhishuang, and said: "In the future, remember to rinse your mouth with salt water after eating, and remember to soften your eyes before going to bed, so as not to be able to speak at a young age, and your ears and eyes are not clear." ”

Old Madam Mu glanced back at Mu Zhishuang slightly and motioned for her to go down.

Mu Zhixuan left angrily, and when she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, she was so angry that she stomped her feet.

After Prince Xin and Mrs. Mu said a few words lightly, they walked to the inner hall and saw Old Man Mu sitting facing the wall, and there was an unfinished and incomplete painting hanging on the wall.

In the painting, the green willows are blowing in the wind, and a vague figure is under the willow tree.

It's just that the painting is extremely rough, very similar to the painting made by Mu Huaide after he was injured.

Prince Xin chuckled lightly and said, "I didn't expect that Old General Mu would have such a good idea, even after being injured, he didn't forget to have fun with it." ”

But there is a clear irony in the words.

Old Man Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression was a little hideous.

Prince Xin burst into the ground, looked at the wrinkled face, and said indifferently: "Do you think you can escape? Do you think that if you don't speak all these years, you can hide the facts of that day? If you are still a man, or a man who stands up to the sky, then stand up and admit what you did back then, and don't be a turtle with a shrunken head! ”

Old Man Mu's body trembled uncontrollably, and he grabbed the armrests of the Taishi chair with both hands, and his face was a little pale.

Prince Xin muttered to himself, "But how can you be the only one who escapes?" I've never wanted to go back to Kyoto all these years, I just don't want to remember those things, and as long as I can't remember it, I won't hate you. But I won't be like you, I don't want to admit it, and I even pretend to have amnesia and pretend to be paralyzed, trying to fool everyone. Also, if your wife knew about this, I am afraid that she would never forgive you for the rest of her life. ”

Prince Xin laughed bitterly, his fists clenched, and only the creaking of his knuckles could be heard.

He ignored Old Man Mu's dusty face, turned around and left.

He really didn't want to step into the Mu family for half a step, if it wasn't for Brother Zhao'er today, he wouldn't want to step into the Mu family half a step if he died.

If it weren't for Mu Huaide......

As soon as he closed his eyes, the scene of that year immediately appeared in his mind.

Prince Xin let out a long sigh, but finally laughed again.

The old man Mu was left alone, and he couldn't sit still in place.

Old Madam Mu saw Prince Xin come out in the outer hall, and after saluting him expressionlessly, she hurried into the inner room, but saw Old Man Mu shrink back in panic.

Old Madam Mu frowned and muttered softly, "Master......"

"Ah Jun......" The hoarse and dry voice came from Old Man Mu's throat.

He sighed bitterly and continued, "I'm sorry, Ah Jun...... I'm sorry...... Ahem......"

He tried to suppress the urge to cough, but his chest rose violently.

Mrs. Mu didn't know why he wanted to say sorry, raised her hand and stroked his chest to ease him, and said, "Master, don't talk, I don't feel sorry for me." ”

Old Man Mu suddenly thought of that night ten years ago, he himself pierced his throat with a spear, wanting to end his life. But he was not so lucky, the moment he just fell, he was saved by Dr. Zhang, who accompanied him.

He couldn't speak for a month because of a throat injury.

Later, because of the guilt in my heart, I couldn't let go of the incident, so I used this reason to say that I couldn't speak anymore because of the battle.

The most unforgivable thing he has ever done in his life, even if it is to let him die 10,000 times, it is not an exaggeration.

He chose several ways to die, but in the end he was unsuccessful.

He remembered the last time he lay on the ground, letting the horse step over his back, breaking his spine.

That time, Mrs. Zhang took him back for three months, and the first thing he heard when he woke up was......

"General, Madame wrote to ask when I would be able to go back."

At that moment he regretted it, he suddenly did not want to die.

No matter what wrong he had done, he should never give up on his life. R1152
